years as a Swanton Township Trustee. During his term Jeff
has brought fiscal responsibility through stopping excessive
spending and controlling expenditures while increasing services
such as increased refuse pickups, yard waste drop-off, and
once a month bulk item pickup. With Jeff’s leadership
the Toledo Express Airport Joint Economic Development District
(JEDD) became a reality, over $1,500,000 of road projects
have been completed, and Swanton Township now has 24x7 Fire
and Rescue coverage including Automatic Response Agreements

and led the effort to reduce the Swanton Local Schools Income Tax Levy from 1.25%
to .75% while leaving the District over $8 million in carryover.
Jeff also served on the Swanton Township Zoning Commission and as Interim Zoning
Inspector.
Jeff earned his Bachelor’s degree in Business from The Defiance College
and his Masters of Business Administration (MBA) from the Bowling Green State

Jeff’s promise to the residents is to be a watchdog of your tax dollars
and ensure Swanton Township remains a rural and safe place to live.

Peggy
has owned her own business for over 25 years has brought financial
and negotiating expertise to the Township. She negotiated the
refuse pickup contract for Swanton Township residents which
brought 2 free pickups per month and residents can choose to
have pickup for the other 2 weeks at a very affordable rate.
This negotiation also allowed the Township to have a Spring
and Fall Clean-up at no additional cost to the residents. Peggy
also negotiated the contract with Ohio Compost which allows
the residents to drop off yard waste at no cost and receive
a 10% discount on products purchased.
Peggy has saved the Township thousands of dollars by negotiating other contracts
and she continues to commit to help make State Route 295 and Airport Highway
a safer road by attempting to work with ODOT to put a traffic signal at the intersection
as promised by ODOT in 2002 or returning it to a four lane highway and adding
dedicated turn lanes.
This is Peggy’s second term of bringing professionalism
and dedication to the Fiscal Officer position and will continue
to work hard for the residents
of Swanton Township. She is also an avid animal lover and a member
of several animal rescue and non-profit organizations.
Peggy loves to hear from the residents, please call her anytime.
